When the description is too long, we show ellipsis. This appears fine, doesn't it?

Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

Android truncating the last character of the text before adding ....

What is the root cause of that problem?

The root cause of the issue is that the Text wrapped inside Flex View is not taking on the full width on Android when number of lines is restricted. This can be seen here.

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

We just need to add flex: 1 here.

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

None

Waiting for checklist

[greg-schroeder]

@narefyev91 / @allroundexperts can anyone take care of this checklist so we can close this out?

[allroundexperts]

Checklist

1. The issue existed since Tasks were implemented. As such, there isn't a particular PR to point to here.
2. N/A
3. Apart from more thorough PR testing, I don't think there is anything else we could have done here. Slack discussion is not required as additional checklist items are not needed here.
4. This was really hard to spot. I don't think it has any effect on the user experience. A regression test would be overkill here.

cc @greg-schroeder let me know if you disagree with the last point.

[greg-schroeder]

hmm. I think you're right. It seems a bit too niche to be added as a recurring test in this manner. Appreciate your help with the checklist :)
